a botanical perfume for the great magician, sage, and alchemist
This botanical perfume is dedicated to Merlin, the great wizard of Arthurian legend, a wise and powerful ascended master. Gifted in magic and energy, he’s also a skilled manifestor. Merlin’s perfume is as mysterious as him, with shapeshifting notes that subtly slip from spicy bouquets to rich resinous woods.
Magical Highlights:
Patchouli, vetiver, and cabrueva—create smoky, rich, mysterious base
Eaglewood—an extremely precious type of oud that nods to the marriage of heaven and hearth, as well as Merlin’s winged friends
A spice accord—black pepper, caraway, and clove spice things up and get the energy moving and manifesting
A chypre accord—oakmoss and labdanum give way to lavender and citrus in the distinctly potent blend
Blazing star flower—for the magical light that Merlin reminds us we all have
